5.  A question to help determine if your perspective has been realigned:
     Among my more serious concerns is:
Gender rights      Racial profiling      Can I speed up to make it through that red light?      Hey you, stop exhaling that second-hand smoke!      Will I still live in a free country one year from today?     Ethnic diversity & reparations       Other
6.  Do you think people realize that the billions of dollars to be spent building and activating the military and rebuilding and repairing destroyed city structures will purchase new products (building materials, vehicles, office furniture, cement, telecommunications equipment, etc.), purchase services (architects, designers, waitresses, etc.) and, therefore pay salaries (construction workers, computer programmers, engineers, truck drivers, etc.)?
       Yes          No           And I understand that it will add to the economic recovery.
7.  The attack on America will slow commerce for a short while.  However, the destruction of infrastructure and lost commerce will eventually result in new jobs, the purchase of goods and services to rebuild, and the patriotic strength and resilience of the American people will lead to a quicker economic recovery than would have occurred naturally.
       I Agree           That makes sense            I knew that!!!
8.  Will the terrorist attack in the United States against all civilized people be enough to provide the rational understanding that we must stop our focus on racial, gender, religious, cultural & economic in-fighting and cooperate to protect civilization from the uncivilized?
       Yes        No        Yes, obviously we need to de-emphasize the in-fighting on minor issues and
                                             cooperate on big issues if civilization is to make progress.
